The ash has cleared enough now for Planes to start...

The ash has cleared enough now for Planes to start flying again but it wasn’t soon enough for one unluckly chap who was stuck in the Algarve. He decided to take his hire car from Portugal all the way back to Britain instead of taking a flight! It stung him a bit though when he tried to drop it off at a car hire company at Birmingham airport who then told him his charges for taking it so far and the cost of them having to return it would be about £1,500! He must be gutted.
